Talk:Top 100 winning pitchers of all time

[edit] "Since WWII"
I initially created the list as the Top 25 since the Depression, which included a few who pitched from the 1920s into the 40s. Working with the numbers, it became clear that the better break was a little later. The list was trimmed to those who pitched predominantly after WWII. That includes three who began before or during the war (Spahn, Wynn, and Feller). Feller began in 1936, hence the "after 1934" construction. Laszlo Panaflex 04:41, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] "Question"
Should Bobby Matthews be on this list? His first five years were in the National Association, and Major League Baseball doesn't consider these stats to be a part of 1876 and on.
[edit] Ties Order
As active players move up the list and into ties, they are listed as the last among those tied with a given number of wins. But retired players in ties are listed alphabetically. It would be more consistent if all the ties were listed in the order in which the players reached that number of wins. Any objections to that policy? I will go through and make the changes later unless there is a good reason not to do it that way. Cheers, Laszlo Panaflex 19:38, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Hall of Fame
Would it be possible to add a "distinctive mark" - maybe an asterick to those players in the Hall of Fame. I know most of them are, but it would be interesting to see who isn't. Papercrab 00:27, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
